Hearts score sheet

Hearts is scored against you. When the thirteen tricks are done, each player counts one point for every heart taken and thirteen for the queen of spades, so every hand puts exactly twenty-six points on the sheet. Check that each row adds up to twenty-six before you carry the totals.

Take every heart and the queen in one hand and you have shot the moon: the other three take twenty-six each, or you take twenty-six off your own score. The pass goes left, right, across, then nobody passes, and the sheet prints that order for you. Play until someone reaches one hundred; the lowest total wins.

At other tables

Cards Royale also offers games to fifty or a hundred and fifty, and the jack of diamonds option, where whoever takes that jack has ten taken off their score. Leave room for it in the hand column if your table plays it.

This is how Cards Royale scores Hearts. The full rules are on the how to play Hearts page.
